Finebaum sounds like a bama fan on the rant. He said this is Saban’s worst coaching job. They are 7-2 right now and can still make a ny6 bowl. He seems very butthurt

They see the timbers rotting. The whole edifice isn't going to collapse today but it needs a teardown and rebuild, and the question is whether Saban is able or willing to do it. Everybody knows Saban is a short timer anyway, and the timeline just telescoped.

Not sure how anyone sees that. He seems matter-of-fact to me. And he has been on the Kelly bandwagon since before many on this site.

And it sure looks to me like it is Saban's worst coaching job at Bama. After his first season, this will be only the third time he will have 2 or more losses in the regular season. And the only time he has had 2 losses and two very close wins in the same regular season. And his team is being penalized more than I ever remember.

Some of this is probably the shrinking talent gap but some, like the penalties, is on coaching.

Of course, his worst is better than many coaches best.

yeah- was thinking the same thing. Instead of giving LSU credit the first thing he does is talk about how disappointing Bama’s/Saban’s performance has been. You’d expect that take from someone partial to Alabama.

Going for two twice was a real head scratcher. He kicks the PAT on either TD and they win the game with Reichard's field goal.

Exactly. What they are seeing is the transfer portal and NIL eroding some of their dominance, but they can’t accept that, so they say Saban can’t coach anymore. COPE.

He is just driving ratings, which is his job. A lot of people like you will say he is just on a Bama rant. A lot of people will agree with him that Kirby has taken over as of the NC game earlier this year. Either way, people he is trying to lure in to watch/listen have an opinion. His show will be listened to by a lot of people today for the purpose of listening to Bama fans losing it.
